USPS package exception. Addressee not known at address. Probably because the local post office has been confused with "Street" and "Avenue". part of the same road but north and south of a cross street.

A friend needs some help to pay for a surgery for her cat Shadow, please donate if you can. gofund.me/61afa5a3

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Foreign Friends with Travel Plans to the U.S. for Conventions: A bit back I said you should maybe reconsider those plans. I would like to amend my prior statement. Cancel them. Cancel them now. We cannot keep you safe from our own government. Take your holiday in Spain or something.

This is exactly what Democrats should be doing!! You’ve got power and status so leverage it. More of this!!!!

Our whole system of government works on checks and balances. If the other two branches of government do nothing when the executive branch is out of control (ignoring/mocking the supreme court), then we have no checks and balances. Supremes...Congress...do something now!

Thank you Eagles

Well so much for the NFC North. Looked so promising... Always a Bears fan. Lions fan because I'm in Michigan now and I just gotta. Now in "anyone but the Chiefs" mode. Their heads are too big and they need to be knocked down a peg.

One of my biggest gripes and one of the biggest problems with Linux adoption: Having to compile software packages for your particular flavor of Linux. This is flat-out a non-starter for anyone not technically minded.

New Year's Resolutions (noon NYE): -Improve our financial situation -Continue de-googling my life -Continue going local only with smart home tech, look for more ways to use it to make our lives better, and keep my dad safe and happy. -Actually finish longstanding games I play regularly

Yo @unraid.net something on your dashboard page has a memory leak. I just found the tab in LibreWolf using 12GB of my 32GB of memory...putting my system at 29GB used. It has crashed my system multiple times from running out of memory. A few minutes after killing the tab has it at 316MB and growing.

Mobile...what a fucking waste.

Honestly just happy the dlc didn't win.

My move to Linux (Manjaro) so far: fosstodon.org/deck/@thunde... (it's a thread)

Some thoughts on the Twitch Recap, Firefox, and...Ads. (not posted here because of post length) fosstodon.org/deck/@thunde...

Manjaro Linux is installed alongside my Windows 10 install now. Just setting it up to my liking. The Kwin Script to duplicate fancy zones doesn't have a slick UI like powertoys, but it also allows more customization of zones that I really like so far. Switching between them while I setup.

Always nice when you expect bureaucracy to cost you a lot of time and effort, but the actual result is quick and efficient. Michigan SoS is doing it right. Got there 15 minutes early, and we were done and out of the door before our actual appointment.
